Update on channels 1. It's not a top priority right now 2. Channels are not expiring; if we end up moving forward with an expiration, we will give advanced notice; consider it an indefinite grace period 3. When it becomes a priority, we will resolve abandoned and squatted channels as part of the expiration; we will likely decentralize channel creation at that point — however, only when a top priority 4. What's higher priority than channels? a. Continue to improve frames UX, especially with regard to onchain interactions b. Improve discovery across Farcaster for anyone building / creating something onchain c. Snapchain — need to scale the underlying protocol d. Cheaper sign ups — top request from several existing apps with large user bases considering integrating with Farcaster e. Migrating Sign in with Farcaster to Farcaster Connect (see FIP) to allow other clients to provide auth for apps / frames f. Rewards and onboarding improvements around invites

the discussion centered around the de-prioritization of channels on farcaster, with channels currently not expiring, offering an indefinite grace period according to @dwr.eth. instead, the focus is on improving frames ux, discovery, snapchain scaling, cheaper sign-ups, and migrating sign-in features. @pichi shared a dune dashboard link to explore active farcaster channels, discussing the pros and cons of renewing channels as they no longer boost algorithmic performance. @plantsnft emphasized the importance of channels like subreddits, while concerns were raised about how to maintain community engagement without dedicated channels. @toyboy.eth highlighted the potential retention impact of newcomers not accessing good channels.
